Owner's Comments

1993-S Silver Dollar PR70DCAM: Jefferson
{ PCGS-3 } (Jan'2010)
Mintage: 332,891 (proof)
This commemorative was actually issued in 1994 although the coins are dated 1993. The commemorative coins were issued to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Thomas Jefferson's birth. This very classic profile of our third president is perfectly captured in silver cameo relief with a new perspective for Montpellier on the reverse.

Expert Comments

Jaime Hernandez: The 1993-S Jefferson Comemmorative Dollars were struck to celebrate the 250th birth of Thomas Jefferson. This was a very popular Comemmorative at the time of issue that the entire Mint State and Proof mintage of the Jefferson Commemorative Dollars was completely sold out.

Obverse: The obverse features Thomas Jefferson. It has the inscriptions, Thomas Jefferson Architect of Democracy, In God We Trust 1743 Liberty 1993."

Reverse: The reverse shows Jefferson's home Monticello. The reverse has the inscriptions, E Pluribus Unum, One Dollar.
